The plumbing connection must be formed by quali ed
personnel that are able to issue a declaration of conformity
in terms of Ministerial Decree 37 ex Law 46/90.
All local and national laws and European standards must be
met when installing and using the appliance. In Italy, refer to
the UNI 10683/2012 standard, as well as any regional or local
health authority regulations
However, it is essential that reference be made to current laws
in the individual countries. If installing in an apartment buil-
ding, check with the management company rst.
VERIFY COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER
DEVICES
The thermo stove MUST NOT be installed in the same space
as that used to house type B gas hearing units (e.g. gas boi-
lers, stoves and equipment served by an extraction hood) as
the thermo stove may cause a low pressure area in the space,
compromising how this equipment operates or be in uenced by
the same.
VERIFYTHE POWER SUPPLY
CONNECTION
(the plug must be accessible)
The boiler-stove is supplied with a power cable that is to be
connected to a 230V 50 Hz socket, preferably tted with a
magnetothermic switch.
The electrical system must comply with the law; particularly
verify the ef ciency of the earthing system.
The power line must have a suitable cross-section for the boiler
power.
An inadequate earthing system can cause anomalies for which
Edilkamin cannot be held liable.
FIRE SAFETY DISTANCES AND LOCATION
For correct operation the boiler must be level.
Check the load-bearing capacity of the oor.
The boiler must be installed in compliance with the following
safety conditions:
- medium ammability items must be kept at a minimum di-
stance of 20 cm from the sides and back of the boiler-stove
- highly ammable items must be kept at a minimum distance
of 80 cm if placed in front of the boiler-stove
- if the boiler-stove is installed on a ammable oor, a sheet of
heat insulating material must be placed between the boiler-sto-
ve and the oor, which protrudes by at least 20 cm at the sides
and 40 cm at the front.
Flammable objects must not be placed above the boiler or at a
distance that is any less than the stipulated safety distances.
If connected to wooden walls or other ammable materials,
the smoke exhaust pipe must be appropriately insulated with
ceramic bre or other similar material.
AIR INLET
(to be mandatorily implemented)
The room where the stove is located must have an air intake
with cross section of at least 80cm2 to ensurereplenishment
of the air consumed by combustion.Alternatively, the stove
air may be taken directly from outside through a 4 cm steel
extension of the pipe.
In this case,there may be condensation problems and it is ne-
cessary to protect the air intake with a grille, which must have
a freesection of at least 12 cm².
The pipe must be less than 1 metre long and have no bends.
It must end with section at 90° facing downwards or be tted
with a wind guard. In any case all the way air intake duct must
be a free section of at least 12 cm².
The external terminal of the air inlet channel must be protected
with an anti-insect netting that does not reduce the 12 cm²
through passage.
INSTALLATION
SMOKE OUTLET
The boiler-stove must have its own smoke outlet (the smoke
cannot be discharged into a smoke ue used by other devices).
The smoke is discharged through the 8 cm diameter outlet
at the back of the boiler. A T-junction must be set up with a
condensation collection stopper at the beginning of the verti-
cal section. The smoke outlet must be connected to outside by
means of suitable steel pipes EN 1856 certi ed.
The pipe must be hermetically sealed. The material used to seal
and if necessary insulate the pipes, must be resistant to high
temperatures (high temperature silicone or mastic).
The only horizontal section allowed may be up to 2 m long.
It may have up to three 90° bends.
If the outlet is not tted into a chimney ue, a vertical section
and a wind guard are required (reference UNI 10683/2012).
The vertical duct can be internal or external.
If the smoke channel (part of the pipe that goes from the boiler-
stove to the chimney ue) is outside, it must be appropriately
insulated. If the smoke channel is tted inside a chimney ue,
the latter must be suitable for solid fuel.
If it is wider than 150 mm in diameter it must be improved by
entering a pipe that has a suitable cross-section and is made of
suitable material (e.g. 80 mm diameter steel).
All sections of the smoke duct must be accessible for inspec-
tion. If it is not removable, it must have inspection holes to
allow for cleaning.
The thermo stove is designed to operate under any weather
conditions.
In the case of particularconditions, such as strong winds, safety
systems may intervene that extinguish the thermo stove. In this
case, do not operate the appliance while the safety devices are
disabled. If the problem persists, contact the Service Centre.
TYPICAL EXAMPLES

A: insulated steel chimney u, Insulated
B: minimum height 1.5 m, and however beyond the eaves of the roof
C-E: air intake from outside (through section at least 80 cm²)
D: steel chimney ue inside existing masonry chimney ue
CHIMNEY POT
The main characteristics are:
- an internal cross-section at the base, which is the same as that
of the chimney ue
- an outlet cross-section which is no smaller than twice that of
the chimney ue
- its position must be high enough to catch the wind and avoid
downdraft areas in turbulent wind..
